Black Friday 2026
Black Friday K‑beauty star buys
Updated 4 November 2026
The Korean skincare deals actually worth having, from shops we trust, with the dates, codes and catches explained.
K-beauty Black Friday starts early: Olive Young’s sale is already on and finishes on 12 November, two weeks before Black Friday itself. We check every deal before it goes on this page, and only list genuine reductions. We’ll add new star buys as each shop’s sale goes live, so check back.

Key dates
12 November: Olive Young Global’s Black Friday sale ends, and the last day to claim its app cart coupon. 17–20 November: YesStyle’s WIN26 code. 22–28 November: Olive Young’s app-only 25% cart coupon can be used. 27 November: Black Friday. 30 November: Cyber Monday.
Buying for Christmas?
Orders from Korea and Asia take longer to arrive, so order from Olive Young, YesStyle or Stylevana by Black Friday weekend at the latest. UK shops like LOOKFANTASTIC, Cult Beauty and Boots are the safer bet for last-minute presents. Not sure whether Korea or the UK is cheaper? See our UK vs Korea price study.
